		Re: End of line : Buffer stops

		Re: The difference between hobbyists and collectors...
(...) I guess the thing I'd point out is that collectors really do value their pieces and their sets as more than just the sum of their parts. Here's the thing: for example, if Galaxy Explorers were $20 a pop, they'd be gone. Anyone who was first on (...) (18 years ago, 8-Jan-07, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

		Re: The difference between hobbyists and collectors...
(...) I thought it was nonsense when LEGO had to offer to buy back some of the Maersk container ships when they were able to produce a second run of them. "Collectibles" are a gamble and the "dealers" lost. So sad, thanks for playing. Catering to (...) (18 years ago, 8-Jan-07, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
